Skopio were giant, scorpion-like creatures that lived on Spherus Magna, and later Bara Magna. The members of the Iron Tribe used to worship the Skopio creatures. They were modified by the Great Beings to be biomechanical, giving them a Thornax Launcher and other changes. Telluris, a member of the Iron Tribe, created the Skopio XV-1 based off the design of a Skopio.
